Sitting tight

As planned, we've stayed put today, feeling sorry for the few boats we have seen moving. It was just very windy this morning, but has been chucking it down from time to time this afternoon. I ran the engine this morning to recharge the batteries, heat the water and run a washload. I had to nip out first thing, still in dressing gown and PJs, to rescue the plant troughs from the roof.

I made a trip to the shop to get stuff like fresh bread and tomatoes, but apart from that we've not stirred out.

Things look a lot better tomorrow, when we plan to chug up to the top of Church locks, just a couple of miles and six locks away.
